Pleasant Valley Golf Club sits just south of Dulles airport, but the expansive layout, which is absent of homes, feels much more secluded. The parkland layout tumbles across a diverse landscape of rolling hills and grassy meadows covered with hardwood forests. There is plenty of diversity throughout the golf course with some holes that are bunker-less contrasting with the links holes that have Scottish-style bunkers. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 fifth. After an uphill tee shot with a bunker on the right and a waste area on the left the second shot presents multiple choices. To the left you could take a risk with trees and a bunker but you could possibly be rewarded with a better angle for the third shot while the right side option will require a third shot over a large bunker to reach the green.

OK course but rude starter

Played this course for the second time ever because I liked the layout despite the questionable conditions (tee and greens not very good) and the price for it. However a rude starter will prevent me from coming back or recommending it. Starter implied he mentioned cpo on 1 and 9 but didn't and rudely reprimanded me. The kicker is his reasoning is that it is always cpo. Hello? How would someone who is not a regular know this? Soured the rest of the round.

Love this course....

You can expect some bottlenecks on the front 9, but overall not bad. Upkeep is very good and the greens are always pretty immaculate. Some really picturesque holes for being so close to the city. Love this course and play as often as I can. Top notch compared to the other 3 or 4 courses in the vicinity.

In terrible shape

Course is absolutely gone. I’ve played here many times over the years but it is the worst I’ve ever seen it. I played twilight and it was $45 and felt like I got ripped off. Course is a $5-10 muni. Pace of play is terrible. There’s a few kids running the show who could care less. We sat 15 minutes on every tee box starting on 2nd hole. Took us over 1:15 to play 4 holes until we started driving around course to other holes just to play some golf. Just awful.

We are very sorry about the pace of play! It has been very difficult during COVID to marshal appropriately with so many players walking. As for $5 value, we aren't sure any course could remain open for $5. Conditions have been very good this year besides a few spots. If you'd like to discuss further, please reach out to jfulton@wingfieldproperties.com

Great Layout and Test

I played with a friend and was paired with two other golfers for a mid-morning tee time on a Saturday. Even on a weekend during prime time, we never had an issue with a pace of play either in front of or behind us. That is a real rarity in northern Virginia courses on the weekend. The staff was fantastic - they took all precautions one would expect with social distancing, but also made it a point to ask us how we were doing on the range, in the clubhouse, and on the patio after our round. The course was in really good shape with the exception of the greens. They seemed overwatered from earlier that morning and had not been mowed in probably 2-3 days. We thought they might speed up as the afternoon sun pounded down, but they never did. I enjoy playing PVGC and think it's a great test of golf. If they give the greens a little more TLC, it would have been a flawless experience.

Slow play

The weather was great, but play was slow. It didn't seem to be over crowded, just that too many golfers were playing slowly for whatever reason.

Excellent course

Played a round at Pleasant Valley this morning. It rained very lightly for the front and cleared up by the back. Staff was extremely friendly and the course was in great shape. Greens were a good speed and well maintained.

Nice day to play

The staff was prepared to open and ready to except customers. Everyone inside the club house wore masks and were very freindly. The couse is in very good shape and set up to accomodate the current COVID-19 atmosphere. We had a excellent round. Go Play!!!!
